Most of what you brought up wasn't really useful critique, but rather noise based on your personal frustration with git. This thread is not about giving lectures on how git works. We appreciate useful comments on the git workflow. But in order to give useful comments, you have to know and understand the project and how it works internally. There will be a sh*tload of developer, feature and whatnot branches. It is just insane to tell everyone to unconditionally do rebases everywhere. You haven't even commented on a fraction of the resulting problems. So please lets stop this discussion and move on.
